You work at a thrift store. You love it there! All of the shoes, clothing, costumes, furniture... All on discount, and all at your fingertips! You don't think you'll ever quit.
However, you're forced to when, after closing the shop, you get grabbed before you're in your car and taken away. Oop. Before you know it, you've been drugged at least four times and taken across the country, where you're packed into a truck with a few other captives. Two guys and another girl. After a while, something makes the vehicle crash, and you have the chance to escape with one of the captives, a young man not more than two years older than you. He seems dazed, but sure of himself. Right now, you're in the middle of a highway in the middle of nowhere, and Valen---that's his name---and you are trying to find your way to civilization to call for family and be rescued...
Through your travels (involving going through the woods when you saw a suspicious looking end of the road), you discovered Valen is a strong, capable, valiant young man with a strive to keep you both alive. And a stickler for morality.
